Hm, the "how to corrupt your database" page explicitly recommends against
this practice (multiple copies of sqlite linked to the same application).
See https://www.sqlite.org/howtocorrupt.html section 2.2.1.

I suppose it is safe enough if the different instances of sqlite never open
the same database?
